Spotlight | Love & Beauty Eyeliner Pencil.

And we're back to regular programming! The long Christmas break is over, the little man went back to school this morning, and I'm back to blogging again! Yay!

I went to a few parties during the Christmas break (it is, after all, a time for reunions and such) and did some catching-up with some of my friends. In one of those parties, a friend of mine asked me what's the cheapest makeup that I own. She was rather surprised to know that I do own (and use) a makeup item that costs no more than Php 70. I'm pretty much a cheapskate at times, you know. :)

Love & Beauty Eyeliner Pencil.

This is the Love & Beauty Eyeliner Pencil from Forever 21, which costs $1.50 (around Php 67). Not sure if this item is sold at Forever 21 branches here in the Philippines, but I got mine directly from Forever21.com. I actually bought this out of curiosity, and yeah, because it is pretty cheap.

Product info at the back. Love that it's not tested on animals.

The Love & Beauty Eyeliner Pencil comes in different shades; I reckon there were three shade selections during the time I bought mine, which is Dark Brown.

Application is smooth and easy - it glides well, and does not tug at all. I also like how this product stays on my lash lines for hours before the color gradually fades.

However, the Dark Brown shade isn't as dark as I wanted it to be, and the color looks even weaker when worn on the lash lines. I need to swipe a few times on my lower lash line (which unfortunately makes my eyes water) for the color to actually pop. But then again, considering how much (or how little) I paid for this product, I guess I can't complain. Haha!

This is how I usually line my eyes during the day - black on brown.Black lifts and defines the eyes, and brown makes my eyes brighter and look less tired.

This is really inexpensive! Loved how the color is of a caramel brown though. Pwede sa brows, especially for those with lighter hair color! :) Btw, happy happy new year sis Czjai! Cheers to more love, happiness and blessings this 2015! ^_^
